I recently made a rig in a CM Storm Sniper case. Super case. Spacious, elegant and above all, excellent for WM, thanks to the smart holes in the tray, the space next to the tray and to the huge space between the tray and the side panel where you can perfect arrange the cables to be hidden.

... from anywhere you looking.

If you choose to leave them on then you have some bling bling.

Buttons, switches, plugs and jacks are located very conveniently at hand.

Wow, that's a great looking build... I'm seriously tempted to abandon my build and switch over to a similar case, although the cost of a new case is making me rethink that. I'm curious too, how's the sound on it? And as for sharp edges on fan openings: I had the same thing, and until I took my case apart to file down the nubs, I just put electrical tape on them. It doesn't look as nice, but it prevents cuts, won't interfere with the fan, and is easy to work with.

Still looking at this build. It looks great. But i was wondering why you still have that CM fan in use (the 120 at the back). Because those fans arent that quiet even at low voltages. You probably can turn that D14 so that the airflow goes up and let the 200mm do the exhausting.

it's more than 40 pins unless I'm mistaken. There are a few lying around here where I work, but I've never really looked at them too closely, I just know when you have the external box, it's a DB44 cable to connect them.
